    If it were your choice?

    Ok, I am going to buy another hammock to keep my grey bird company...
    This one will be used in my home and as a spare on trips for my grandson and I or whoever I can drag out for awhile.. That sale rei is having on the d.n.eno is looking pretty good, but I feel I like I am cheating on Brandon.......
    So if it were you, would you get the traveler or the eno? and why?
    Thanx folks for the input..

    I've got both ... and honestly the Traveler is a little nicer ... but the ENO you can get quicker and cheaper right now ... so kinda up to your needs at the moment I'd say.

    I'd say traveler just for the mosquito protection of the double layer, but the REI deal is tempting.

    Let me add ... if you're just going to use it as a spare ... and take out now and then for a loaner to family or friend ... definitely get the ENO for the good price.

    If for you ... the Traveler.

    Another thought about the Traveler, especially if it is to be a loaner, is that it comes with a ridgeline. Ridgelines are very nice things for someone not trained in the dark arts, they remove a big chunk of learning curve. Plus, the WB Traveler is a really comfy simple hammock.

    OTH, Warbonnet Outdoors is shut down for the next month effectively and the ENOs are sitting right there on the shelf at REI. Hopefully, the Travelers will be sitting next to them one day, but until then.....you can have a spare hammock tomorrow with an ENO!

    yeah and then you can buy a Traveler later and have a spare spare!

    "the dark arts" LMAO.

    I think the ENO would be the way to go for a loaner/spare. I typically never lend gear to anyone unless they share the same knowledge and enthusiasm about it. Even then the I would have to already have an established level of trust. And like the others have said, the ENO's can be had right away.
